We've had birthdays galore around here, and new schedules and schools and it's been crazy! Jess turned 14, Isaac turned 3 and Halloween is 2 days away!!!
Isaac update: He is now 3, which means all of his therapies have stopped. He is now going to ChimneyRock and receiving speech 2 times a week for only 30 min and OT for 30 min. That is not anywhere near enough for him. He is doing really well with the new routine and seems to love the classroom! He has said pumpkin (mostly right) and nana! He has had a few new words but mostly we are working on putting 2 words he already knows together... ex: want cup.
I'm stressing a bit about Christmas, but I'm trying to just let it go and enjoy the time I will get with all my family. My favorite part of the year is coming and I'm more excited than stressed this year. It's a nice change.
Since Isaac has school 5 days a week now, and Landon has it 2 days a week...I have been cleaning my rear off! My house was so dirty I couldn't believe it! Every day I do a different set of rooms...literally from top to bottom. Cabinets, chair rails, lights, baseboards, blinds...everything. It takes me about 3 hours everyday to do one room, or two small rooms. It is seeming to be really great exercise for me and I hope I'm sweating some of the weight off!!! I'm also trying to walk more. I have a HUGE goal for myself and I'm having to take baby steps though and not jump right in. My new goal...do the Disney Princess Half in 2016. The one coming up in 2015 is sold out. So, even though it's a year away....I'm horribly out of shape and still counting down. D said that if I'm ready to run it by July, we'll go. So even though it's not until next Feb for me, I have until July to prove that I can do it. My brother and mom seem to think that I could...so I'm going off their faith and going to do my best to get there.
This will be Jess and Brandon's last year for trick or treating, so they plan on making the most of it! Landon will be batman, and Isaac will be Robin. We plan on having so much fun Friday taking them around the block then passing out candy! I'll post pics Saturday hopefully!
This has been a really rough year for us. We have struggled so much all year. If anyone would like to help I will post our gofundme link on fb and also I have created a wish list for Christmas. I think the big kids have lost their minds with their lists, but I put it all on there for them anyway. Some people don't like donating money, so I put lots of things on the amazon wish list if anyone wants to help out but not send money! Every little bit helps. It was a total shock to me that, even he's so young, Isaac had to have uniforms.
Well, hopefully I can update the blog more often now that after cleaning in the morning I can sit for a few in the afternoon!
Here's our Amazon List link....that also has target and walmart stuff on it too...
